Art flourished in Ancient Greece, from the archaic (late 8th century--480 BC) through classical (480--323 BC) and onto the Hellenistic (323--27 BC) period.
Sculpture was prolific, particularly of the human figure. During the archaic period sculpture was mainly used in temples but later became commonplace in homes and palaces. So too did another Greek art form - mosaic.
Nearly all painting in Ancient Greece was for vases and until the 5th century BC artists worked as both potters and painters.
Art also flourished for jewellery-making.
